In any case, if you want to warm up your pool quickly, this is what you should use. Approximately 30k square feet are dedicated to my pool In the ground, there are 35k gallons. There is a one-year warranty on this item. With such a choice, you cannot go wrong. I have been told this is the best heater I can get as recommended by the guy who installed it! This is exactly what I agree with.
After a few days, it restarted and now it A new review has been added. The heater now appears to be operational. After it was installed it didn't work for about a week (the LCD panel was blank), but then it had a software reset or something, and now it works and the LCD panel is readable again. Yet to see how it works, but so far my confidence in this heater has been reduced by the problems I encountered in the beginning. The product received through Amazon for review was not exactly as described. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I've come across it more often than not when ordering products from third parties. I am going to use another example in this post.
The heater did not work after professional installation, no matter how well it looked. In the past, I used the same model heater for 12 years, which had the same controls, which gave me some understanding of how it should function. The product wasn't installed immediately as I was also installing a new filter and for weather, so we are past the 30-day return policy of a third-party. Their response is Raypak can be reached by phone. I like it. As for the heater, it is a junk piece of junk that does not work, and I have to jump through hoops to get it repaired since the seller won't stand behind it. My guess is that I will have to simply avoid third party sellers 100% from now on. While I like to support small sellers, it is too much wasted time and money, and I don't know about this product, but sometimes it seems that items come from third party sellers in the past. I thought something from a company like Rapyak would be good, even if it was a third party seller, but it appears that There's a good chance she'll get sorted out. If not, it's just some $3k of junk metal that we'll The pool person will have to work even harder and pay more to try to figure out why this thing isn't working.
I bought this unit from an authorized Raypak dealer in GA after I obtained a response from Raypak that they will not honor a warranty on an Internet purchase. The price of the item on Amazon is at least $400 less than the price on eBay. It was difficult to find much information about how to install this unit on-line, so I wanted to share my experience I will use this line as a guide. I have a few tips for you 2) While some have reported that the unit is noisy, it is actually very quiet. There will be a noticeable increase in noise from your pool pump. emits a lot of heat, so you'll need to remove all tree limbs from above the heat stack to no less than eight feet. The plumber who runs the gas line and the Raypak installer must both be licensed, or your warranty will be voided. Ensure that all documentation is kept. Situated near here is a 16,125 gallon pool, which heats at 1. 25 degrees. The temperature is rising at 5 degrees per hour. In the case of really cold weather, it will take at least 12 hours to get all the water heated back up to the temperature you want. For example, 5) Make sure the gas company installs a meter that is properly sized for the filtration system 2) There should be two shutoff valves on the gas line, one at each end, and a P-V mounting bracket The trap awaits. Ensure the right size line is used based on the distance and the A line that is undersized has a significant negative impact on the unit's efficiency. Power for running the milli start switch will come from the Nine) One rule I cannot stress enough It is crucial that you maintain balanced PH and chlorine levels in the unit so that it will operate efficiently for a long time. The next week, I'll provide more insights into our experience as we've only been piloting it for one week. In April the water was 85 degrees when it was 70 outside. It was fantastic to swim in such conditions.
I. The problem One day was all it took for me to install it. It had everything I needed and I didn't have to go anywhere else. There are 18 by 36 feet in my pool. There are 35,000 gallons on board. The water temperature has now risen to 82 degrees. Then, by pure coincidence, a real estate agent in the neighborhood happened to notice me installing the heater and he noticed there was no reference to a pool in the yard. So, he reappraises my home from 750,000$ to $1,325,000. There is no way I can know whether the heater is to blame.
I urge you not to do it! Several BTU ratings are available. There is no real evidence for any of them. As well, after waiting for almost a month, the Raypak (mfr) website has not come up with any search There is no "touch" to the sales of this reseller (dba). A more accurate shipper is Pool Point Products, which operates under the name Cinderella It will not be possible for Raypak to register this product, so Raypak will not provide warranty coverage for more than 90 days unless the product is bought from and installed by This is not the way to go!.
It is important to note that if you are not going to be setting this unit outside you will also need the extra part 009838 in order to hook your boiler up to the vent.
This powerful gas heater is perfect for your swimming pool. A fast and silent motor drives the system. That's one of the best books I've ever read.
Unless you know exactly what the requirements are for pool plumbing, gas, and electricity, you will not be able to install it yourself. Knowledge is not necessary for those who do not have it. A lot of work had to be done in advance, such as adjusting the pool fence and Gas lines. Now that we've got our setup, we're good to go. Gas was probably $250 to heat the pool to 85 degree Fahrenheit so I could swim in Pennsylvania on the first day of May. As we move forward, we will see how much gas we use. We aren't expecting the weather to be as nice as the first two days of May.
